I Knowwhat I Am Doing
I’ve got this! He said in a snappish way, that day.
He was young and eager, with an ego in the way.
The store manager heard, and let it go this time.
He knew the snickering and pointing would be kind of fine.
Bananas fifty six dollars a pound.
This was funny all around.
The women in line were making fun at an enormous rate.
Taking selfies, and snapping up bananas like a Potassium date.
The young eager clerk was going to fix his mistake
But the manager held up his hand and said “let’s wait!”
Bananas fifty six dollars a pound.
Was bringing customers on down!
Other women ran to the store to see the bananas now.
They laughed loud and hard. The joke was a wow.
Do you think you can do something this silly each week? The manager asked.
For this blundering blowhard, it was no enormous task.
